Americans...check your labels. Stop buying or at least throttle back purchases of products made in China. Anywhere else but China. Preferably America, but if not given that choice, try to buy goods from other countries.

This will force companies to change where their goods are manufactured. We Americans are slitting our own throats.

Many years ago, Ross Perot said of the trade agreements allowing communist China to become a manufacturing power house....if these trade deals pass, you will hear a GIANT SUCKING SOUND jobs leaving this country!

Too late Marco. You're a member of a party that sold out America decades ago.

I cannot think of a single institution from the church sanctuary to the sports arena to the courts to the hospitals to the Ivy tower that has not been compromised by Chinese money.

When the time comes, China will not storm our beaches to conquer the country they will simply nod to the leftists among us who will obediently open the gates and invite the barbarians through. They will rule us without the necessity to actually occupy us. They will do so effortlessly but completely by controlling every institution as their proxies.

Centuries old Chinese martial doctrine tells them to delay the invasion of Taiwan, they need only wait until it falls like ripe fruit into their hands, facilitated by the American left.

Oddly, there are plenty of morons in this thread who agree with Rubio.

The culmination of decades of betrayal of US workers.

My take... The Chinese aren’t interested in profit, They are interested in power.
